Abstract

This 8-year-old female came to her paediatrician with an 18-day history of facial swelling. A biopsy was performed at that time, and was interpreted as indicating Burkitt's lymphoma. Findings from blood studies and chest radiographs were normal. Clinical examination revealed an 8 x 9 cm hard tumour attached to the left side of the mandible. Enlarged firm submandibular lymph nodes were also present. What is your diagnosis?
